Motion to Suspend the Rules; May 30, 2009 Journal Page 4737: 25 Yeas, 5 Nays


YCT Nay. Near the conclusion of the 81st Legislative Session, horse and dog racing advocates supported HCR 252, which called on the governor to create a task force on horse and greyhound racing in Texas. Gambling is destructive to the state’s moral fiber and is supported by government solely for the revenue it generates. Gambling in the State of Texas should not be expanded
